For Lowell Baker, 66, who writes:

Well, as a native Californian, I never thought I would wind up in Idaho where my father came from as a child. Happy about that seeing how things are in Cali today. I grew up in Fullerton, a wonderful place and time. My jobs ranged from being a bus driver, where I met my wife, to working for 7Up, to doing 40+ years of striping (professionally painting stripes) with 22 years as a contractor. I went to Europe at age 18 and to Israel at age 26. I was a master counselor in DeMolay, and Ive been married for 46 years to the bride of my youth, Arlene, who was a SHHS who used to ride my bus to and from school. My hobbies are photography, history and archeology. Ancient history tells us we have not been here long. I’m a strong Christian, too. I believe in spending my life helping others, and enjoying life. After surviving four strokes and major open heart surgery, I am thankful for every sunrise that comes into the cabin in Idaho where Arlene and I live. Our kids are married and have wonderful sons. Life is good! It’s been hard sometimes, but still good. [and Lowell leave an emoticon with huge smile.]

Chicago born and California raised. Since retiring from teaching, I have been traveling throughout California with my wife collecting gems and minerals as well as collecting fountain pens. Daughter and grandson reside in Monterey so that is one of our frequent trips.
